Ait ouagherda tribal rug

Ait ouaghreda tribe Berber rug, all handwoven, all wool, a great piece for
indoors. This rug was purchased from an old man on our way back from
Ourzazate to Marrakesh.

The
wool is died with a process that has been traditionally employed by
Moroccans. As long as you take care of the carpet, the colors will not
visibly fade.

This
is a magnificent hand-knotted & it is handmade, wool moroccan
double-sided carpet or rug created by berber women in the atlas
mountains - Morocco.

The
general design is quilt-like, with two pairs of columns of alternating
squares on each row. Each large square design in the main canton
appears twice. It was loomed to look like stained glass windows. The
internal border work is outstanding as is the outside border and the
fringe. The colors are rich, vibrant, exquisite and varied.
